Definitions
- the method according to the present invention has the advantage that it may be carried out irrespective of the need to culture and purify the microorganisms.
- uncultured organisms 99-99.99% of the total population
- the present invention is of considerable commercial importance. This applies both to uncultured members of established groups and to the major, novel and uncharacterised microorganisms discovered through molecular analysis.
- Figure 2 illustrates the amplification and linkage of a taxonomic gene fragment and a functional gene fragment wherein linkage of the amplified gene fragments is achieved through the hybridisation of mutually complementary regions of DNA;
- Figure 1 shows a section of genomic DNA from a microbial sample, showing a taxonomic gene remote from a functional gene.
- Numbers 1 and 2 represent 16S rDNA taxonomic gene specific primers, which could be either general or specific, and numbers 3 and 4 represent primers for the functional gene, which may be specific to a gene of interest or may be random.
- Figure 1(d) shows the repair of single stranded breaks by Klenow fragment (3 '-5').
- Figure 2(b) shows an amplification product 11 of gene 5 using primer pair 7 and 8 , product 11 comprising DNA strands 12 and 13. Also shown is an amplification product 14 of gene 6 using primer pair 9 and 10 , product 14 comprising DNA strands
- Figure 2(c) shows that upon denaturating of products 11 and 14 DNA strands 12 and
- DNA polymerase is then able to initiate polymerisation from this hybridised region to produce strands complementary to the gene-derived sequences of DNA strands 13 and 16 (as illustrated by the broken arrows).
- a first broth culture of C. albicans was set up by inoculating 10 ml of YPD broth with a single C. albicans colony. The broth was incubated at 30°C with shaking overnight. To ensure that the cells to be used were in the exponential phase of growth, during which they are most active, 500 ⁇ l of the first broth culture was taken to inoculate 10 ml of fresh YPD medium and incubated at 30°C for a further 3 h to establish a second broth culture.
- the cells of this second broth culture were then pelleted by centrifugation at 5,000 rpm for 5 min.
- the cells were washed three times by re-suspending the cells in 1 ml PBS by pipetting and then centrifuging the cells at 5,000 rpm for 2 min.
- the cells were re-suspended in 460 ⁇ l of buffer A [0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5), 1.2 M sorbitol]. An aliquot of these cells was retained for use as a control (representing non-permeabilised cells). The remaining cells were permeabilised by incubation with 40 ⁇ l zymolyase and 1 ⁇ l ⁇ - mercaptoethanol at 37°C for 15 min with gentle agitation. The cells were then washed again three times with PBS as above. The final cell pellet was resuspended in 100 ⁇ l of PBS.
- the taxonomic and functional genes selected for amplification and hybridisation were the 18S rRNA gene and the chitin synthase gene respectively.
- the primers pairs used to achieve amplification and linking of the genes were nu-SSU-0817 and nu-SSU- 1536TAIL, which are specific for the 18S rRNA gene, and CHS8-8TAIL and CHS8- 11, which are specific for the chitin synthase gene (details of the primers are included in Table 1).
- nu-SSU-1536TAIL and CHS8-8TAIL both contain, in addition to sequences complementary to their respective target genes, "tail" sequences that complement one another. In situ PCR reactions were set up such that each 50 ⁇ l reaction volume contained:
- nu-SSU-1536TAlL and CHS8-8TAIL primers 0.2 pmol of nu-SSU-1536TAlL and CHS8-8TAIL primers.
- PCR amplifications were carried out on a Hybaid Omni-E Thermal Cycler (Hybaid) as follows: 94°C for 5 min (one cycle); 94°C for 40 s, 55°C for 2 min, 74°C for 1 min (10 cycles); 94°C for 40 s, 55°C for 40 s, 74°C for 1 min (23 cycles) followed by a final incubation at 74°C for 7 min.
- Hybaid Hybaid Omni-E Thermal Cycler
- the cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 5,000 rpm for 2 min. The supernatant was removed and retained for analysis. The cells were then washed three times with 200 ⁇ l PBS as described above. Following the third centrifugation, the supernatant wash solution was retained for analysis. The final cell pellet was resuspended in 30 ⁇ l PBS and incubated at 95°C for 5 min to lyse the cells. The original supernatant from the PCR, the wash solution, and the lysed cell solution were then analysed by electrophoresis in a 1% (w/v) ethidium bromide stained agarose gel.
- reaction products are present in lanes 1 to 6.
- the reaction products contain the hybridisation product, comprising fragments of the 18S rRNA gene and the chitin synthase gene linked by the hybridised "tail" sequences (band indicated with arrow), 18S rRNA product and chitin synthase product. Excision and sequence analysis of the hybrid product band has confirmed its identity through the presence of fragments of both target genes.
- the lane labelled M contains molecular weight markers, and the lane labelled C represents a negative control.
- PCR product was centrifuged to separate the cells. The supernatant was analysed for PCR amplification products. The cells were washed with PBS, lysed and then analysed for PCR amplification products. Presence of the linked product within the PCR amplification products was confirmed by electrophoresis in a 1% (w/v) ethidium bromide stained agarose gel.
- Bacterial cells may be separated from soil particles by dispersion in a Waring blender with 100 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) for 1 min. Coarse particles may then be allowed to settle for 1 min before the resultant suspension is serially diluted to remove the remaining soil particles. Bacterial cells may then be attached to paramagnetic beads by antibodies specific to bacterial cell wall proteins and the beads washed to remove any residual traces of soil particles, which could interfere with further processing. The beads may then be serially diluted in a microtitre plate format to give approximately one cell per well.
- a gentle cell lysis solution 0.5 mg ml "1 for 30 min at room temperature
- the bacterial wall can be permeabilised such that primers and reagents are able to enter the cell but nuclear material is not able to escape.
- a first round of PCR using primers 1, 2, 3 and 4 (Table 4), can then be carried out to create amplicons of both the 16S rRNA and amoA genes (cycling conditions - 10 cycles of 30 s at 94°C, 60 s at 55°C, and 45 s at 72°C).
- a conventional PCR (cycling conditions - 60 s at 94°C followed by 30 cycles of 30 s at 94°C, 60 s at 55°C, 45 s at 72°C, followed by 5 min at 72°C) may be carried out using the primer set 1 (16S rRNA for ammonia oxidiser) and 4 (amoA for ammonia oxidiser).
- the amplified product can then be sequenced using internal sequencing primers.
- Oligonucleotide probe sequences suitable for amplification and linkage of phylogenetic and functional genes in environmental samples.
